What Owners Say
"ABS is pressurizing continually while driving. This creates a loud buzzing noise. Dealer said this is not a problem"
James L., OH (2014 Honda CR-V EX-L 2.4-L 4 Cyl)"I replaced rear brakes prematurely. It appears the dealership must have replaced the pads but not the rotors or calipers. The rotors and calipers were so rusty they were extremely difficult to remove. It seems they are unusually exposed to weather and rust. They are fine now they have been replaced."
